  1. Trumpers in my FB feed have been trumpeting this the last few days https://www.kennedy.senate.gov/public/2025/1/kennedy-calls-for-fcc-to-review-partisan-decision-to-approve-soros-backed-takeover-of-200-radio-stations Funny, they seem to be OK with FOX, Salem Radio, whatever Clear Channel is calling themselves these days who give us constant conservative radio pablum
  2. Local First World problems, the county has cut off water for the next six hours or so as contractors install a water line into the building site of a new subdivision. FB and Nextdoor is going crazy, I just consider it practice for the next four years or so. The HOA really needs to install portajohns on every street in the community
  3. This should tie up Congress for about 15 minutes. Almost like a strongly written email to my shipyard owned Congress critter

  5. And if not them family members
  6. From Bill Kristol this morning We are seeing purges and secrecy and firings and, yes, law-breaking by a bunch of arrogant young Muskovites, acting at the direction of their Alternative für Deutschland–supporting unelected and unaccountable “special government employee” boss. Americans already have their doubts about Musk. His presence, looming in the wings and off-putting to most Americans, is a vulnerability to be exploited. Also an interesting take from Wired, especially on recent votes by a senator from Maine. It inferred some of the pressure being put on elected Republican goes beyond threats of being primaried.
  7. And Trump never touched the Bible. What was up with that? Were his fingers crossed?
  8. Love the payback...can we just call them Little Boys
  9. 2/4/1789 2/4/1861
  10. Need to rename her Lucy. She talks a good game until it's time to act. Always pulling the football up at the last second.
  11. Infrastructure week has been extended to a permanent time period where nothing gets done under Trump...
  12. Trump caved. Canada should agree to join the union only if granted equal representation with other states in Congress. Each Province should be allowed two Senators and equal proportionment in the House using South Dakota as a base. The same with Greenland.
  13. From my limited experience I think for the most part they appreciate it I you try. I failed French in high school, did poorly in Spanish. Currently my limited knowledge of French stems from being a 3 or 4 year old and watching the forerunner to Mr Roger's Neighborhood, The Children's Corner on Public TV in Pittsburgh. There were a couple of songs, one featured the days of the week, the other was counting. Im still fairly fluent in Yinzer still
  14. Our experience is limited and about 40 years old but this. I remember being in a theatre in Quebec City, we were camping and it was a very rainy evening, the movie was Ferris Bueller's Day Off. We were amused at the pause between the punch lines and laughter in the theatre, the time it took to translate English to French. I'm assuming most Quebecers are bi-lingual. Same trip in Montreal, we stopped at a McDonalds for lunch, My wife had taken French in high school and college attempted to order in French, she did well until near the end and stumbled over the words. The young lady behind the counter basically praised her "You were doing so well"
  15. This is the way most MEGAs think, you can never reason with them because they think they know everything already. Like arguing with a four year old
